    You can see the raw dough not fully cooked on the chicken too if you zoom in. And no that is not cheese.

    The food doesn't look appetizing nor tasted good. I got a buffalo slice and a plain chicken roll. I get back to my truck ready to drive to my job and as I split the pizza roll I noticed something that didn't looked cooked through however thought it was probably just cheese. My first bite in I realize that the whole roll given to me was raw. It was disgusting and raw. The whole roll including the chicken inside had raw dough on it and wasn't cooked. The food was raw and gross. I also found a piece of hair on my buffalo slice and luckily noticed it before I left the store so had the owner change the slice for me.

    Great pizza by the slice or pie. I took 2 slices home. Bc I'm trying to not indulge. The pepperoni pizza is always delicious. Sometimes the red sauce can be a little sweet. I used to go to the one by MS51. They are all consistent n delicious. The crust is nice b crispy. It reheats well.

    Goooooooooood Za I could see its potential But also was super stale cus WE HAD A FIASCO TO PICK IT UP (Not Joe's Pizza Fault at all ) So I think that tarnished

    I ate half the slice before taking this pic

    Best pizza in the neighborhood! Don't sleep on their Sicilian slice! But they also never fail on the plain slice, perfection through and through.

    Decided to swing by here because it's so hot outside and everywhere else is still closed. No AC but still refreshing with a plain slice and bottle of coke. Joe's always gets the simple slice right. Perfect sauce and cheese ratio. Hits the spot.

    One (or four) of the best slices in NYC!

    Joe's Pizza is consistently delicious and my go-to pizza spot! The cheese and the sauce are on point. I love a good ol' fashion plain slice (pepperoni works too) and I often get the ham/pepperoni pinwheels. Joe's has been in the neighborhood forever and they're still here for a reason. Don't let the divey storefront fool you. This pizza is the real deal.

    Ordered takeout. Pizza was delicious, full of flavor, and the perfect amount of cheesy pizza grease. Side salad was also great. Very fresh with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers and red onion. Wish they had French fries on the menu but they don't.

    Just opened the box to this hot mess

    Ordered from this place soon after moving to NY (Brooklyn) in 2011. It was so bad that I never ordered from the again, even though they're not too far from my apartment. Fast forward to tonight. The place could have changed right ?? Everyone deserves a second chance right?? Well the answers are No and hell no. I ordered a pepperoni and green peppers pizza. What I got was a hot, oily mess. The sauce was way too sweet( in my opinion) and was the dominating taste. The pepperoni and cheese were tasteless and kind blended together. The green peppers, they were green peppers. Never again for me. Oh, I noticed that place is listed under two different addresses. One at 259 Prospect Park W. and the other at 479 Prospect Ave. The place is located on the corner of Prospect and PPW, it's the same place.

    Standard-Issue Nostalgia with a Side of Rushed Hospitality…read more If you enjoy paying in time rather than digital convenience, Lucali's reservation process is a masterclass in performative nostalgia. Arriving at 2 PM to stand in a line for two hours just to get on a list for a 7 PM seating doesn't make the place feel exclusive, it makes it feel like a punishment. But hey, we got a table, so the sacrifice was supposed to be worth it. It wasn't. Lucali is BYOB, which is fine in theory. My party brought two bottles of prosecco, fully prepared for a cozy, rustic evening. The server kindly offered to pop the first bottle, then brought out our glassware: heavy, standard water glasses, fresh out of the commercial dishwasher and literally piping hot. There is a special kind of absurdity in pouring crisp, ice-cold prosecco into a glass that feels like it was just pulled from the depths of hell. To top it off, nobody offered to keep our second bottle chilled. Minor detail, sure, but for a place with this level of cult status, the low-effort service immediately set the tone. To give credit where it's due, the ambiance is legitimately cool. It's dimly lit, atmospheric, and feels like step-back-in-time Brooklyn kitchen. Watching the pizza makers roll out dough using empty wine bottles before shoving them into the roaring brick oven gives off that warm, "Nonna's kitchen" charm. You want to love it. Then the food arrives, and the illusion shatters. Our server gave us the bare minimum rundown: "We have pizza, calzones, and tonight's special pasta." Zero detail, zero enthusiasm. We ordered the pizza and the calzone. The pizza was... fine. Completely fine. But calling this the best pizza in New York feels like collective mass delusion. If you've been to L'Industrie or Mama's Too, Lucali isn't even in the same stratosphere. Then came the calzone, which was allegedly stuffed with five cheeses. The server proudly named four, withholding the fifth as a "secret ingredient." A mystery cheese angle might be fun if the calzone blew your mind, but by the time I took a bite, the gimmick just felt tired. It was a perfectly average calzone wrapped in high-end gatekeeping. The grand finale, however, was the absolute kicker. Just under an hour into our meal, after overhearing the hostess realize she'd botched the table rotation, our server came over with an update: they had overbooked and needed our table. Her gracious solution? "You're welcome to pour the rest of your prosecco into your glasses and finish it outside!" The remaining, warm, prosecco that is... Let's recap the math: two hours waiting on a sidewalk at 2 PM, five hours of waiting for the reservation time, warm glasses for cold bubbles, middle-of-the-road pizza, and a boot out the door in under sixty minutes because they messed up their own seating chart. Disgraceful hospitality masked as old-school Brooklyn charm. If you love mediocre food, lukewarm prosecco in burning hot glassware, and being rushed out to the curb, Lucali is waiting for you. As for me, I won't be back.

I was greeted by an angel called Lisa, who was very much giving fairy Godmother of Luigi's pizza. I stumble through my order. I'm confused. I'm asking questions. The whole time Lisa is patient. She's sweet. She's funny. Makes me feel right at home. I asked for one slice of Knicks pizza but I wanted pepperoni on there. They said it didn't come with pepperoni, but the owner was sitting there like "you know what since you asked for it we'll do it for you." It's like I was heaven and was told Ask and you shall receive, we just want you to be happy! Now, I don't know what sort of crack cocaine they put in this Knicks pizza but it had vodka sauce and ricotta, hot honey olive oil and I think a pesto drizzle. Oh my Jesus Christ this was the best pizza I've ever had in my entire life. Savory, a lil sweet, saucy. Lisa was right, don't need ranch for this at all. Also loved the white pie. I'm so sad because I had to leave New York the next day but days later I am still thinking about this pizza. I am still thinking about sweet Lisa and just how warm and welcomed I was in the few minutes I spent in this restaurant. I'm still thinking about how delicious this slice was!!! I cannot recommend enough, 10 out of 10 you won't regret it. Tell Lisa the girl who asked for ranch and she responded "that's sacrilegious"sent you. I told Lisa I'd leave a good review and she said "we don't care about no reviews we care about getting you fed". Enough said!

I went in with extremely high expectations after seeing Barstool give it a 9.3, which is an incredibly high score. In my opinion, Dave Portnoy has a particular style of pizza that he prefers, and that definitely influences his ratings. Personally, I would not rate this pizza anywhere near a 9.3, especially considering how many great pizza options there are in Brooklyn. That being said, it is still a good slice and worth trying. I just don't think it quite lives up to the hype or the exceptionally high rating it has received.

Unfortunately, our experience was extremely disappointing. We ordered a glass of wine, a beer, an arugula salad, and our main food order. Everything started out fine, and the salad came without a problem. But then we waited. And waited. About 30 minutes after we had ordered, I asked our waiter where our food was. He apologized and admitted that he had forgotten to put the order in. By that point, we had already watched other tables receive their food, including people who had arrived well after us. We continued waiting, and after roughly 40 minutes or more, our food still had not arrived. At that point, the dining experience was already ruined and we decided to leave. Ironically, just as we were getting ready to go, the food finally started coming out. I told them we no longer wanted it. The waiter did apologize again and offered us a pizza to take with us, which I assume was complimentary, but by then we were simply ready to leave. Even paying the bill became unnecessarily drawn out. We were charged the full amount for the salad, beer, and wine. I sat with a $50 bill ready to pay, was handed the check, and then ended up standing around for another five minutes waiting for someone to actually take the money. There was no apology from the person handling the payment. I understand that mistakes happen, and I appreciated that our waiter admitted he had forgotten to place the order. But when a restaurant makes that kind of mistake, the recovery matters. After waiting that long, watching later-arriving customers get served, and then having difficulty simply paying and leaving, an apology and a pizza at the very end didn't really fix the experience. Unfortunately, based on this visit, I can't say the service lived up to the restaurant's reputation.
